December 25th 2022
The House With The Red Door
11:54 P.M.
Two years, two years was the amount of time that house was on the market. Most would say that the previous owners wanted too much but to Chuck he really didn't care. Now it was just his guesthouse for when Ellie came into town. Ellie lay in bed next to her husband Devon in deep thought as Devon spoke.
"What are you thinking about babe?" Ellie snapped out of thought and spoke.
"Just about Chuck and Sarah." Devon smiled at her worrying about Chuck.
"What about Chuck and Sarah?" Ellie looked at him like why are you asking.
"I don't trust her, at all. I just don't believe that she really loves him the way Chuck thinks she does." Devon never anticipated such doubt from Ellie.
"Oh… why don't you go talk to her one of these days while were still in town you know." Devon was right instead of doubting her why not just go talk to her about it.
"You know what that's a great idea maybe tomorrow I'll go over there and have a little chat with Sarah."
December 26th 2022
1:58 P.M.
Ellie had thought all morning about what she would say and finally found the right words as she walked up to the massive double doors that encompassed the front doors. Sarah was having a rather quite morning with chuck having to run up to work and nothing to do Sarah decided to sit in the home theater room and watch a movie. Sarah was half way through Wayne's World when she heard the doorbell ring throughout the large house. Sarah got up and jogged to the front door and looked at the security screen, the monitor showed that it was Ellie so Sarah opened the door.
"Ellie what a nice surprise come in, come in." Sarah had a bright smile on her face as she hugged Ellie.
"Is uh, is Chuck home?" Ellie had a conspiratorial look on her face, which bothered Sarah slightly.
"No he had to go to work to tie up some loose ends as he put it." Sarah giggled at how cute her husband could be.
"Good cause I wanted to talk to you alone without my boneheaded brother interfering." Ellie's demeanor had changed from one of happiness to one of anger and hatred.
"Ellie I don't understand." Sarah was going to say more but Ellie cut her off.
"Now you listen and you listen good you lying bitch I don't know what kind of angle your working on Chuck but I don't buy it. You left for nine years, nine years! You had all that time to come back into his life and you choose now? Now that he's rich beyond belief and lives in the giant house it's okay to come back. No I don't believe it, it makes morbid sense that you would pick now! Yes I get that you lost all your memories but really you lived with him for an entire year then just up and left. If I hadn't walk into his apartment at the exact moment that I did he would have blown his brains out! So I only have one question Sarah, why are you here?" Sarah was stunned by Ellie outburst.
"Ellie first off I'm not working an angle I'm here because I want to be. Second I'm hurt that you would ever even think I was using him and third I used the intersect removal glasses and they worked I remember everything all the pain, all the heartbreak, everything." Ellie's demeanor changed drastically once again.
"Sarah I am so sorry about everything I said I didn't know about the glasses, wow I feel terrible I come bouncing in here all mad and yell at you in your own house." Sarah couldn't blame her at all for her little tie raid; she was just looking out for her little brother.
"So you remember everything?" Ellie asked still not totally convinced.
"Yes everything, you can quiz me if you want."
"No that's okay I believe you, it's great to have you back Sarah." Ellie gave her a big hug before speaking again.
"So Sarah doing anything later?" Sarah nodded yes.
"I'm having a ladies night with Carina she is in town and wanted to get together to catch up, you are welcome to join us if you want."
"No that's okay I wouldn't want to impose."
"Believe me it's okay I think it would be great if you came. Anyways you have a lot to fill me in on." Ellie smiled.
"Okay what time should I be here?" Sarah paused to think.
"7:30 should be fine." Ellie nodded and walked back over to the front door.
"Okay see you later Sarah." With that Ellie walked out of the front door and left.
"Jesus Christ that was so weird." Sarah shrugged her shoulders in exasperation before walking back into the living room.

3:50 P.M.
BTC Chuck's Software Company
Chuck had been in meeting's all day and it sucked. All he wanted to do was hold Sarah in his arms and just be with her. With the stock market the way he was he had some important business to attend to. Sarah had a surprise for Chuck, as she walked up to his office at BTC sizzling shrimp in hand she could help but feel proud of him he was rich and successful. Sarah was quickly approaching his office when she heard some yelling coming from the other room.
"No Beckman I will not come in for an update no!" Sarah gasped at what she heard Chuck was talking to Beckman.
"General with all do respect you have sunk your claws into enough of my life so FUCK OFF!" Sarah heard him slam the phone down before walking towards the door. She quickly backed away from the door and put on a big smile. Chuck threw open the door and quickly noticed her standing there, he quickly put on a smile, considering he was not in a good mood this was a testament to how much he loved her.
"Sarah what are you doing here?" Chuck looked kind of surprised to Sarah see him at his office.
"Just wanted to see my man at work." She giggled before holding out the bag from bamboo dragon.
"Sarah is that sizzling shrimp." His mood instantly brightened at the thought that his wife brought him lunch and came to see him.
"Of coarse, I know what my man likes to eat." He walked over and kissed her before putting an arm around her and led her to his office.
As they sat down inside his office Chuck opened up the bag and pulled out the food.
"So Chuck you want to tell me when you got an intersect update or should I ask Beckman." Chuck looked at her shocked unable to speak.
"It just dawned on me Chuck, how on earth would you know about the masked man if you didn't flash on him, and furthermore how could you flash on him if your intersect is over 9 years old? That means that during our time apart you took an intersect update. When were you going to tell me Chuck or should I ask were you even going to tell me at all?" Sarah had her hands on her hips and was giving him a really dirty look.
"Okay Sarah your right on all accounts I do have Intersect 4.0 in my head but only because the CIA and NSA needed my help." Sarah gave him a really skeptical look like 'sure like I believe that'.
"Really Sarah I'm telling the truth about ½ years ago they came to me asking for my help. Of course I said no at first but they told me it was about you so I immediately agreed." Sarah gasped; they brought him in to investigate.
"So they wanted me to look into this former ring agent named Ivan Jameson, when Shaw turned himself into the ring and we blew up the facility Jameson suffered severe injuries to his face. The pain drove him insane and he broke out of the facility they had him in. 9 years ago they captured him and were in the process of transferring him when the transport was attacked, on board was Mr. Colt, Hugo Panzer, Lazlo Minofski and Jameson. During the attack Hugo and Colt both died and Lazlo was severely injured. Somebody took him away and the government lost track of him. He started to wear a mask to hide his face, that's where his nickname the masked man came from." Sarah just nodded as he continued.
"So they said they needed me to bring him in because they needed an intersect and although I thought they didn't know they did know that I had Intersect 3.0."
Sarah Gasped at that, they had been so careful after Quinn to hide Chuck's secret but apparently it wasn't enough.
"So what you're saying Chuck is that they twisted your arm into downloading the 'new' Intersect so that you could bring him in?" Chuck nodded yes.
"So what were you supposed to get out of this deal? Because to me this doesn't really favor you." Chuck looked down at his plate full of sizzling shrimp and sighed.
"They said they would let me see you…" Sarah gasped once again.
"Oh my god." Sarah was shocked her eyes open wide her mouth slightly agape.
"I was so desperate to see you that I did anything they asked me to hoping that I could bring you home." Chuck got slightly choked up at the emotions of the subject.
"I went and got him with the help of agent Barker and a tact team, then came one of the worst days of my life."
Chuck knocked on general Beckman's door her office was a bee hive of activity.
"Um general can we talk for a minute?" Chuck was slightly nervous about what he was about to ask.
"What is it Bartowski?" Beckman was busy looking at some files not even acknowledging his existence.
"So you promised me a meeting with Sarah, I was wondering when that was going to go down?" Beckman looked up at him and removed her reading glasses, giving him the 'are you serious kind of look'.
"I'm going to be straight with you on this one Bartowski, It's not going to happen. You can't see her." That last statement took Chuck aback.
"What?" the serious disappointment was apparent in Chuck's voice. Beckman spoke in a flat emotionless.
"You didn't really think that is how this works did you? Oh come on Chuck you've worked with us before you know the drill." Beckman stifled a laugh as she saw the look on his face.
"General I can't believe you would do this to me after all that I did for you, nearly five years of my life was dedicated to the 'greater good' you've made a mistake this time mam." She looked at him before speaking.
"Bartowski we never actually planned on letting you see her, that was just a ploy to get you to work with us. We knew that you would do anything to see Sarah so we used her to get to you." Beckman had never seen such rage in Chuck before. It seemed like every muscle in his body was tensing his fists were clinched and his teeth were gritted. He walked slowly up to her desk before bending down and getting really close and speaking.
"You know general if you make to many enemies there wont be anybody left to protect you from the storm is enemies that you will have created and I can guarantee you that I won't come to protect you because I don't protect lowlife scum." Chuck turned around and walked to the door were he through it open, the secretary on the other side was surprised by this and flinched at him. Beckman slowly sat back in her chair and breathed a sigh of relief.
"I believe that I may have made a mistake."
Sarah sat back I her chair as she listened to him finish up his story. She wasn't surprised at all by Beckman's actions. Beckman had changed over the years; she had gotten more and more reckless as time had gone on, more heartless. Ever since Roan died from that heart attack she hadn't been the same. She was bitter because of it and often made cold calculated decisions, still the NSA was going to replace her in the summer.
"I was so obsessed with seeing you that I let my guard down and fell for her tricks. Ever since Emily dumped me 7 years ago I became fixated on getting you back and fixing what ever mistake I thought that I made." Sarah almost cried after hearing him talk about 'his mistake' that was her mistake and to hear him talk like that broke he heart, of coarse they had already sorted this out and well no hard feelings.
"Who, who is Emily?" it was a simple question but still very hard to answer.
"Emily was my attempt to move on from you…" Sarah thought that's who she was, she was curious as to why he said attempt, of coarse she new that they weren't still together.
"We had been dating for about a month and she decided it was time that we should um have sex… When I finished I uh I called out your name…" Sarah gasped.
"No" she couldn't believe it she felt terrible for him.
"Yeah it's true, she left that night and I never heard from her again. After that I realized that nobody would ever be able to replace you so I just gave up dating and focused on finding you and getting your memories back." Sarah leapt out of her chair and kissed him on the lips in a desperate try to convey how much she loved him, Chuck quickly reciprocated the kiss and before you know it they were both caught up in a heated make-out session their hands exploring one another.

2 hours later
Chuck and Sarah's estate
Chuck walked out into the foyer of his massive house and yelled up the stairs to his wife who was in his office doing something on his Computer.
"Hey honey were out of Chicken, I'm going to the store to pick some up do you need anything?" Sarah stopped typing on the computer and thought about it for a few second.
"Could you pick up some more fish food for Shark?" Shark was her second golden fish, the first one died Chuck insisted that they get a new one so they got Shark.
Chuck grabbed his keys and headed for the Lamborghini to go to the store. He started his car and off he went.
Sarah was just finishing typing out the paper work for her stuff to be shipped here from DC, it had been nearly an hour since Chuck had left which meant that Carina and Ellie should be arriving soon. Sarah got up and walked downstairs to make sure the house was clean. Sarah happened to walk through the living room on her way to the kitchen.
"Hey Carina… Carina? What are you doing here? How did you get in?" Sarah was so shocked to see Carina at this moment in time; yes she expected to see her in a little over half an hour but not now.
"Hey girl how you doing!" Carina stood up from the couch and hugged Sarah.
"So good to see you Carina, just so you know Chuck's sister Ellie is going to be joining us tonight." Sarah motioned for Carina to sit down before sitting I a chair.

5-Miles Away
Ellie's Car
Same time
Ellie was in rather good mood as she drove over to Chuck and Sarah's place, Sarah was here to stay and Ellie could not be happier. Finally something good happened to Chuck and Sarah, it always seemed there was something keeping them apart. Quinn, Shaw, Bryce, Cole even the God damn Intersect drove a wedge between them at some point. Ellie was determined not to hold a grudge against Sarah because quiet frankly Sarah was the best and worst thing to happen to Chuck in a long, long time.

Casa Bartowski
2 Minutes Later
Everything was going according to plan Chuck was gone nobody suspected a thing. He had been monitoring Walker and the Bartowski's for many years' waiting for his chance to strike, to exact his revenge on them, all he had to do now was wait for the right moment. He and his men were waiting inside the garage to strike.

Casa Bartowski
Same time
Sarah was so glad that she could meet up with Carina; it had been far to long since she had just hung out with Carina. Ever since she had attempted suicide Sarah had tried to avoid her and pretty much everybody else having become extremely depressed of coarse she always lied her way through the psychological evaluations in order to become field active.
"It really is great to see you Carina we should have done this sooner…" she was cut off by the sound of a door being kicked in and a large amount of men charging into the room. Carina stood up to pull a gun but was stopped by the sound of a gunshot. Sarah looked over at Carina in time to see her fall to the floor in a heap.
"Carina!" she ran over to Carinas dead body and shook it trying desperately to bring back her best friend. Sarah looked over her shoulder at the group of well-armed men, through all the commotion she saw him.
"No, no not again no!" Sara sank to the floor and started frantically crawling away fear overtaking her as he slowly approached her. The Masked Man looked down at her his metal face staring through her.
"Hello Agent Walker, BLACKSPARROW is calling." His raspy robotic voice bellowed. A lone tear crept down Sarah's face as he slowly walked closer to her.
"Men, finish the job you know what to do." Two men ran up and captured Sarah as the rest brought in containers of gasoline.

Ellie's Car
2 minutes later
Ellie was quickly approaching Casa Bartowski when she saw a tower of smoke slowly crawl into the sky. She followed the smoke with her eyes until she found its source.
"Oh my god!" Chuck was the only thing that was on her mind as she starred at the blazing inferno that was once his house. Ellie pulled out her phone and quickly dialed Chuck's phone. It rang and rang and rang until…
"Hey Ellie what's up?" Ellie let go of the breath she didn't know she was holding.
"Chuck! Oh my god you need to get home now! It's an emergency! Your house is on fire get home now hurry!" Ellie sounded frantic and scared on the other side of the phone throwing Chuck in to a frenzied panic.
"Ellie calm down, I'm on my way."

Casa Bartowski
Chuck had just arrived and was in total shock the fire fighters had to restrain him to keep him from running into the house to check for her.
"Sir she isn't in there and if she was there isn't anything left to go get so please stay back!" Chuck backed away before bending over, his hands on his he started to dry heave. After a few minutes he stood back up and looked in shock at the blazing inferno that was once his house. His phone vibrated signaling that he got a text, he pulled out his phone and looked at the screen. The number was encrypted but he opened the text anyways.
